Together

Roger McGuinn

Love was never good to him

All his days were spent in shadows

Standing near the carousel

Watching lovers spin around, together



No one could remember why

No one heard his lonely story

Walking in the crowded streets

Past the couples holding hands, together



Together

Oh the music in the word

And the feeling he could feel

The rush of rivers flowing

And the touch of something real

Together

Together

Dreaming of a tiny light

In the distance of the night

Together



Keeping secrets to himself

Smiling at the conveersation

Dinner with an old-time friend

Look at all the people there, together



And then, and then he met her

And suddenly his life was upside down

A summer party by the sea

And all the time the fear that she

Would make him play the clown

But oh how warm the look she gave

And oh how sweet the song

He met her and his heart was swept along



Nothing lives that cannot die

No onoe loves except forever

So he promised he would try

And they started out, together
